DOWNTOWN ORLANDO
DOWNTOWN ORLANDO
Orlando is quickly becoming recognized as a World Class City. Downtown Orlando is home to the
Amway Center, Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts and a completely overhauled Camping
World Stadium. We’re growing our transportation infrastructure through SunRail commuter
rail service, Brightline, expansion of the Orlando Airport and the I-4 Ultimate project. Our tech
community is thriving as evidenced by many successful “home grown” tech companies, the
formation of the Orlando Tech Association and several tech-focused co-working spaces. Orlando is
also making a name for itself as a foodie town, a nationally recognized leader in sustainability and
green building practices and an overall great place to live!

destination where artists, audiences and students come to experience, explore and learn. Phase I
features the 2,700-seat Walt Disney Theater and the 300-seat Alexis & Jim Pugh Theater. The $228
million Phase II broke ground in March 2017 and will add the 1,700-seat Steinmetz Hall.

Village. In addition to regular season games, the Orlando City Stadium has hosted "friendly"
matches, international matches and both the U.S. Men's National Team and the U.S. Women's
National Team.
